~ Focusing on your photographic needs!

Monthly Archives: July 2012

Many of you have requested it, and we have now been able to fulfill your wish…

Come in and try out our brand new touchscreen Photo Kiosk! If has the same ordering format as our ordering system on our website, so you may already be familiar. If you can order it online, you can order it at the kiosk in store. That means not only prints, but cards, collages, buttons, magnets, and more coming very soon!

Many of you may remember the old kiosk that used to sit on the front counter. In a word, it was terrible. So, we decided the best thing to do was just remove it and help everyone with their on site orders through on of our computers until we could find a better solution. That has worked pretty well, but many people don’t want help and just want to come in and place their order on their own. Now, that is an option once again! However, if you like having someone help you and walk through things with you, we certainly still offer that service as well! We understand that sometimes making decisions on images and enlargements can be tough, so we are perfectly willing and able to be the objective third party that you sometimes need. So, please know that you are by no means ever expected to use the kiosk! It is certainly your choice as to which type of service better fits your needs. We are just happy that we can provide both.

So, come on in and give it a try! We are more than happy to walk you through any part of it that you need assistance with as well. Oh, and see that awesome shot of Lisa (our lab manager) hanging above the kiosk? That is a 20×24 print that was made from an image taken with an iPhone 4s! Take a close look at it when you are in the store. It’s pretty amazing what you can do with files from the newer cell phone cameras! By the way, we print those as well. Look for a mobile app coming soon, but as of now, we can print them in store for you (or you are welcome to email them to us at print@f32photo.com with print instructions). Soon you will be able to connect your iPhone to the kiosk and print straight from there!

Well, we alluded to one of these things earlier, but it is actually here now…

That’s right, a Nikon D800! It is fresh out of the box and we are so excited to introduce it into the rental program. The rental rates for the D800 are $160 for 3 days, $185 for 4 days, $230 for 7 days, and $305 for 10 days. Call now to reserve your spot!

In addition to the Nikon D800, we have also added 2 new lenses to our rental program. If you have been curious of how the Sigma 24-70mm 2.8 lens compares to its counterpart in Nikon and Canon glass, you can now test it for yourself. We now have a Sigma 24-70mm 2.8 IF EX DG HSM for Nikon and Canon in the rental program. The rental rates for each of these lenses is $35 for 3 days, $40 for 4 days, $52 for 7 days, and $70 for 10 days.

Renting a piece of equipment is a great way to give it a test drive if you are thinking of investing in it. In addition to providing Sigma equipment in our rental program, we are also Sigma dealers, so if you are thinking about purchasing Sigma equipment, we would love to talk to you and see if we can help you with anything you might need. We offer an incentive program as part of our rental program for anyone who rents a Sigma lens from us and then decides to purchase one. More details regarding this can be found here on our website.

Sigma is also having a Sizzling Summer Sale on a variety of lenses. Now through July 31st you can receive a $75 instant rebate off the 24-70mm 2.8 lens! The MSRP is listed as $1400, but we have the 24-70mm 2.8 lens priced at $899. Add another $75 instant rebate to that low price and that is an amazing deal!
